Hello, this is Pledis Entertainment.

We are making an announcement with regards to SEVENTEEN member, Seungkwan’s participation in the 2020 SVT 4th Fan Meeting.

Last month, due to an injury on his ankle, he had gotten a surgery and is currently receiving treatment and physiotherapy, focusing on his recovery. As we have been observing the situation with our artist, and after discussing directly with Seungkwan himself, as he himself shows a strong persistence to proceed with the performance, we have come to the decision that he will be participating in the fan meeting in a way that does not strain him.

Following which, for the 2020 SVT 4th Fan Meeting, Seungkwan will be performing, although minimally. He will also be participating in the additional activities after the performances, and other schedules provided it does not pose any strain on his recovery and treatment.

We once again apologize for having concerned the fans, and we will do our best such that Seungkwan will be able to return to the fans healthily, by focusing on his treatments and recovery.
